Dr. Michael Rubinstein’s Coin Magic book has been a huge hit and a best seller. You probably noticed that it is no longer available and is basically out of print.
But I was able to buy all of the remaining stock, and he visited me this week to autograph all the copies. This will be your last chance to get one… for at least a very long time.
As you can see by the photo of him signing them there are not many copies left. Get one: HERE
I am also releasing a David Roth download of a routine you are probably not familiar with. If you previously purchased one of the authorized Roth Coin Boxes don’t buy it, I just added it to the tutorial page that came with the boxes.
►Rubinstein Coin Magic:
Dr. Michael Rubinstein has had a lifelong passion for magic with coins. Over his lifetime he has earned a reputation as being one of a handful of Coin Magic Experts. He has offered hundreds of techniques and routines in books, magazines and on video.
As he was working on his legacy project, he selected what he felt were the best of his routines and techniques and added many new routines and improvements for most others. You will find work on just about every known coin plot and some that you have never heard of. Most of the magic uses sleight-of-hand although there are sections on gaffs, chips, coins with cards and even some coin mentalism!

►Triple Change:
The routine begins with a coin box containing three coins. Two half dollars with a copper coin sandwiched between them.
The first phase has you putting the two silver coins in the box and closing the lid. You then vanish the copper coin and when the box is opened the copper coin is found sandwiched between the two silver coins.
The second phase has you putting the three sandwiched coins in the box. You then produce the copper coin and when the box is checked it only has two silver coins.
The surprise finale has you putting the sandwiched coins back in the box and when you dump them out, they are now two copper coins sandwiching a silver coin. The silver coin then vanishes and reappears in the box. Everything is examinable throughout.

►Roth Coin Box:
In his constant pursuit of the ultimate coin box routine, he created the Roth Coin Box which allowed him to be secretly one-ahead, and it also did a lot of the dirty work for him making the routines cleaner and more direct. In addition to the Roth Coin Box, you also get access to an in-depth tutorial where he teaches what he considered his best Coin Box Routine.
What is a Roth Coin Box? Some people assume that it is a standard type Okito Box with a slot in it, that is now commonly called a Slot Box. Of course, a slot is involved but there is much more than goes into making this box so very special.

►BACK IN STOCK:
Below you will also find the Michael Rubinstein items that I ran out of recently, that he brought with him to the book signing. For everything Rubinstein go: HERE
►The Other Hand:
Dr. Michael Rubinstein performed “The Other Hand,” his new coin plot, on season nine of Penn & Teller: Fool-Us. You saw him perform a five-minute showpiece.
After recording the formal TV version of the routine, he decided to continue refining the routine and eventually created a close-up version that is shorter, more direct, and easier to do. The new close-up version uses the same props but is streamlined for more intimate performances.
Since the props involved are difficult to put together, he decided to release a limited edition for serious coin magicians and collectors.

►Conviction Prediction 2.0:
The original Conviction Prediction became so popular that Michael kept working on it and streamlining the method and handling. This new 2.0 version creates the same effect but now it automatically resets for repeat performances, easy to carry in a leather wallet, and can easily be done standing.
If you purchased the original version, you could get an upgrade kit that includes the necessary added props and access to the new tutorial.
This is a mentalism/coincidence routine using coins and Poker chips.
What makes this special is the delayed ending which comes completely unexpectedly, and since none of the props are gimmicked and only one simple sleight is used everything is examinable at the end.
